Sea Glass Jewelry

Hi guys! Brinley here. Today I'm going to talk to you about how to make fun and creative sea glass jewelry! This can be used as a gift or just for yourself, because it is so pretty and so fun to make. Lets get started.

So, what is sea glass? Sea glass is glass that was tossed into the ocean hundreds of years ago. It was tossed and turned in the ocean until the sharp edges were gone and it developed frost. You can find sea glass in many places all over the world. I live somewhere where we don't have a lot of sea glass. Heck, we have no sea glass at all! But I went to Alaska and Florida and found some gorgeous pieces! People can also make sea glass themselves with a special tosser. You can make your own or buy some at a local craft store.

Step 1: Get some sea glass. If you live by sea glass, you can go collect some. If you have some leftover from vacations, you can use that. You can even buy man-made sea glass at a craft store; anything works.

Step 2: Get some wire. We will wrap the sea glass with the wire, so make sure you get a color wire that compliments the color of your sea glass.

Step 3: Start wrapping! You can make any design you wish! Here is a tutorial that REALLY helped me out (video not mine.)
 
Hope this makes the perfect gift! Be sure to share your comments below!
